Animal Liberation protest at Pitt Street Mall 1561

I took a number of photos today at Pitt Street Mall of a small and peaceful protest organised by Animal Liberation. The protest was designed to shock and quite a few people had a good look at the staged scene.

I had a brief conversation with Animal Liberation representative, Nicole Brown, who said they usually get a lot more attention and are surrounded by media during their protest but only when the protesters are naked or semi-naked. When it comes to actual issue reporting main stream media is not really interested.

When I returned to the site of the protest 20 minutes after this “cages, injured and suffering” photograph was taken, police asked nicely the protesters to “move along” which the group did.

Coincidently this evening all main media outlets carried the news about protesters at the Beijing Olympics “showing skin”.

Happy couple

This couple could not let go of each other. There were lots of hugs and kisses and it was obvious they did not want to part on their way to work.

The Potbelleez performing their new single ‘Are you with Me’ live at Martin Place Sydney. Photo shows the guys playing into the camera.

You can see more photos of Blue MC, Dave Goode, Ilan Kidron and Jonny Sonic in my The Potbelleez gallery.

Their new single “Are you with Me” sounded like a lot of fun, dancing music. They performed it with a lot of energy and obvious joy. Probably a track worth adding to your Apple iPod collection.
